THE RETURN OF THE BIRDS.
They Begin Their Twittering Flight
Southward in September.
From Country Life In America.
For the lover of birds September Is
a month in which every hour at tho
desk or In tho office Is sorely be
grudged. Once again Is the shrubbery
filled with tho old friends whoso ac
quaintance was made early In the
spring. In August the search for bird
life was ofttlmes most discouraging,
and It would seem that the feathered
folk had deserted all the dear old
haunts. But In this month behold the
feathered hosts once more. The first
cool weather brings a wave of the little
winged sprites, most of them being the
warblers. They are on their way
south now, and to the amateur the new
dresses of many of them make recog
nition a bit difficult. A great number
are young birds which Have not yet at
tained the plumage of maturity. Then,
too, many of tho adult birds have
donned their traveling gowns, which
aro much soberer than the gorgeous
dress of tho nuptial season. The
spring songs are lacking now, but the
familiar twitterings nnd characteristic
notes aro to be heard wherever the
birds are found. The fall flight is In
reality one of the most interesting
phases of bird study. He who would
know his featheved friends thoroughly
must be abroad with note-book, and
pencil dally, for many of the birds,
tarry but for a day or two on their
way south.
Species which were by no means
'common In the spring will often be
seen in unexpected numbers during the
fall migration, as If they varied their
routes of travel between the limits of
their habitat. Those who dwell along
the seacoast have an opportunity of
studying a phase of bird life, the trag
edy of migration, which those further
Inland know nothing of. At no sea
son of the year do so many of the
feathered folk come to untimely death
by dashing against the light houses as
In the September lllght. Beyond ques
tion this in part is due to the fact
that a large percentage of the migrants
are making their first long journey.
Then, again, September nlshts arc
Inclined to be foggy. The result Is
that the glare of the big seacoast bea
cons seemingly confuses the feathered
travelers, and thousands dash them
selves to death. From September 1 to
10 many sojourners of the summer
will take their departure for warmer
climes. The worm-eating warbler and
tho blue-winged warbler are . among
the first to depart.
With them will go the rough-winged
swallow, the orchard oriole and tho
Arcadian fly-catcher. During these
same .early days the black-polled
warbler, the Connecticut warbler and
the Lincoln sparrow are likely to ar
rive from the north, tarrying briefly
on their way south. During the next
ten days we may say good-bye to the
purple martin, the Baltimore oriole,
the yellow-breasted chat, and that lit
tle nugget of living gold, the yellow
warbler. At this time In the low,
damp meadows and marshes that er
ratic flyer who Is at once a delight and
an exasperation to tho sportsman,
Wilson's "wipe, is to be found. He also
Is a transient. The blue-headed vlreo,
the olive backed thrush and Bleknell's
thrush will also1 make a fleeting visit.
September 20-30 sees the departure and
arrival of many old acquaintances,
The Louisiana water-thrush, the veery,
tho hooded warbler, that pleasant little
singer of warm July days, the warb
ling vlreo, the wood peewee, the rose
breasted grosbeak, the yellow-throated
vlreo, tho kingbird, the ciested fly
catcher, the humming bird, the little
green heron and tho common tern all
depart for distant lands. At the same
time llttlo woodland ponds and quiet
waters become tenanted by those mar
vellously swift yet diminutive ducks,
tho green-winged and blue-winged
teal. The American coot will also be
found In the sedges. All three of these
nie but sojourners for n week or two,
The golden crowned kinglet and tho
juneo come down from tho north to
spend tlio winter. In certain sections
the winter wren also comes lo take up
his abode, Tho yellow palm warbler,
tho myrtle warbler, the white-crowned
sparrow, tho white throated spariow
and tho inhy-crowned kinglet nlEo
como from the northern districts, and
later will seek a more southern lati
tude. Along the seacoast the great
broad-winged hcnlng-gull nriives to
spend the winter, All through the
month tho various waders, such as the
sund-plpeisj tho plover, the curlew and
tho yellow-legs como down In great
flocks along the bait marshes, travel
lug to the Houth. The lllght of these
birds Is usually heaviest In tho early
part of the mouth and by the end of
tho month only a few belated strag
glers are to bo seen, Tho forerunneis
of the grent web-footed tribe begin to
arrive, but tho main (light will not be
for sonio weeks yet. Thus It Is thnt
the blid student who would keep In
touch with tho feathered world lino's

M'KINLEY AND RECIPHOCITY.
V. E. Cuitls in Chicago Record-Herald.
President McKlnley's ideas of recipro
city were very much broader than tho
treaties now pending In the senate, which
were negotiated by John A. Kasson. un
der his direction. Mr. Knsson was re
stricted In his negotiations by section 1
of the Dlnsrley tariff law, which permit
ted him to make concesons on very few
articles of Insignificant chnrncter, and not
more than 20 per cent, reduotlon from
the regular duties upon them. It h a
wonder that he was nble to secure any
concessions from foreign nations at all,
'but ho showed great skill and shrewdness,
and succedpd In concluding a set of ar
rangements which, If they aro ever rati
fied, will be of considerable value to tho
export trade. Speaker Reed. Mr. Ding
ley, Mr. Dalzell, Mr. Payne, Mr. Hopkins,
Mr. Tawney nnd other members of tho
house who wero engaged In framing the
Dlngley bill did not Intend that the re
clproelty section should be successful.
They know, or they expected, It would
fall. They placed It In tlio law against
their own Judgment, being compelled by
popular sentiment nnd In compliance with
the platform of the Republican niitlonal
convention. They aro all high piotec
tlonlsts, and aio opposed to reciprocity,
on principle, They will light nnd defeat
that and every other proposition that
points to the reduction of the present
high tariff duties.
President MoKlnley, who was a fur
sighted man mid Just us good a pro
tectionist as those I have nnmed, saw
that there must be a reduction of Unties
sooner or later; that the high proteutlon
that had been extended over the me
chanical Industries wns no longer needed,
and was a temptation to manufacture! s
to keep prices up higher thun necessary,
becauto they could not buffer from com
petition. In reducing duties, ho did not
Intend to remove protection, but to leavo
ns much as necessuty, nnd use tha re
duction as an inducement to foreign nn
tlous jo rkiIio similar i eduction In their
tariffs upon goods Imported from tho
X'nlted States. Ho believed that this of.
fercd an opportunity to secure Important
courcsslons in tho Intel est of our foielgn
trade, and If ho had lived he would luivo
urged eongre.s to uutltorlzo him to open
iitgotlatlous to that end.
Ho a Wo felt that wo hud a light to u&k

coming and for year.) have been coming

as enffoo, tea, silk, hides, rubber and

culToo lalsed In Ilr.i7.tl, and admit It free,
of duty, but Ilrussll Imposes heavy dullea
